At this point, it looks like we had fifteen participants. I’ll be back later with the winners.

I read... a pathetic amount, but I read. My reviews are here:http://cathythelibrarian.edublogs.org/I didn't really keep track of my hours, because honestly, there is no way that I read more than anyone else. However I am proud that I sat down and took the time to read, rather than doing something else. Plus some kid was bothering me about returning the Runaways comic series because he wanted to read them. Pesky kids.

One of the bestselling preschool books of recent times was Walter the Farting Dog. At the same time, the American Library Association named as one of its best books Michael Rosen’s Sad Book, a book in which Mr. Rosen talks about his despair over the death of his son. I believe that, for most of us, what we want lies somewhere between a flatulent canine and overwhelming grief.
